Chapter 644 – After the Silence of All Things
Chapter 644: After the Silence of All Things
The aftermath caused by the big bang shook repeatedly between the two worlds, the winds of chaos rolled up and disturbed Vanna’s long silver-white hair, she raised her hand to shield herself from the wind and sand in front of her eyes, watched the phantom ship that burned with a blazing flame slowly land in the sea of sand, and then saw the huge black goat walk down from the clouds and step by step come to the side of the Lost Country Ship.
Then a flame fell like a meteor from the deck of the Lost Country and spread into a gate before her eyes, and Duncan’s figure stepped out of the gate.
“Captain!” Vanna immediately snapped back to her senses, and she took a step towards Duncan, but just halfway there she felt her body sway and almost fell forward to the ground – at the last second before she was about to fall, she braced herself with the same cane the giant had left behind and swayed twice before finally stabilizing herself.
Duncan came to her quickly, “How’s it going?”
Vanna held the cane with one hand, lifted her head with a bit of effort, and forced a smile, “It seems …… really kind of tired to me this time.”
Then she will the other hand of the long sword casually dispersed, and reached out in the clothes to dig out, touched out that is still radiating bright warm light “sun”, slightly trembling to hand it to Duncan: “Here you are, this is Tarekin left the ‘sun! ‘ …… intact.”
Duncan immediately noticed the name, “Tarekin?”
“Yes, that giant …… His name is Tarekin,” Vanna nodded gently, “He is the god who records history, and a long, long time ago, He fell on the day the Great Annihilation occurred. ”
Duncan frowned as he gazed at the ancient “star” in Vanna’s hand, radiating a warm glow, and in the midst of a myriad of thoughts, he finally reached out and took the sphere.
The warmth came from his palm, and the slow-moving flames on the surface of the sphere licked gently at his palm – but there were more important things at hand.
Duncan casually put the “sun” into his arms, stepped forward to support Vanna’s arm, and with his other hand took the huge cane held by the latter, which looked like a rough tree trunk – he could see that the beautiful girl was really not going to be able to hold on much longer.
Vanna was not polite either, as she breathed a sigh of relief and pressed most of her body weight onto the captain, while looking up at the huge black goat that was still standing quietly next to the Lost Country, and asked thoughtfully, “…… Is that the ‘First Mate’ ‘?”
“How did you recognize it?”
“The shape of the face, even though it’s magnified many times over, you can still tell,” Vanna said, and couldn’t help but add, “Also, I do use my brain to reason.”
“It was indeed him – I repaired the keel of the Lost Country and gave him a portion of my own flame so that he could regain this stance for a short period of time,” Duncan said as he led Vanna towards the flaming doorway that still rested at the edge of the dune. “We’ll discuss the details afterward, for now get back to the ship, it’s not over yet.”
As if to corroborate Duncan’s words, before his words had even left his mouth, a low and strange rumbling and disturbing whistling sound gradually came from the distance, as if two gigantic grinding wheels had resumed grinding and tearing at each other, and terrifying vibrations and loud noises reverberated in both worlds at the same time!
In the distant sky, the “collision” that had once stopped began again, the mountains were collapsing, the clouds began to boil, in the sky, the depths of Silantis that had already been turned into ruins once again surfaced with a huge fire, and the forests and the earth, which had been almost completely swallowed up by the darkness, were gradually reshaped as if the time was reversed, and then in the process of reshaping, all kinds of twisted and horrifying gestures appeared. Presenting a variety of twisted and horrifying gestures – and the next second, those re-emerging and twisted forests and the earth and quickly disintegrated, once again engulfed by the darkness, the whole process of week after week, step by step towards madness.
Around Vanna, a terrible wind swept across the boundless desert, but this time it was not she who was controlling the “storm” – it was as if the wind hid countless, hissing, hideous phantoms, each crying out the names of the dead, a great wall of sandstorms. A huge wall of sandstorms took shape in the wind, and visions of cities and mountains appeared within the walls.
The final collision and fusion of the two worlds had begun.
At the last second of the storm, Vanna was tugged by Duncan into the revolving flaming doorway.
The next second, she was standing on the deck of the Lost Country – the blazing spiritual flames formed a wall outside the Ghost Ship, and the ghastly scene of the collision of the two worlds became a distorted and hazy illusion beyond the flames, but even through the layer of flames, it was as if she could hear the hissing of the two worlds at the same time, and the horrific roar of the collapse of all things! The ghastly roar as it collapsed!
“I thought it was all over ……” she looked at the world that was being torn apart beyond the deck in dismay, and felt the shaking that was coming from the deck, which was getting stronger and stronger, and all of a sudden she seemed to be a bit unresponsive, “why ……”
“We have only destroyed the Sunchild that invaded the Dream of the Nameless One – yet Silantis’ nightmare will not end there,” Duncan’s voice sounded from the sidelines, “This is the deepest recesses of the elven race’s memory, and the great Annihilation A scene from the time of the Great Annihilation is deeply imprinted here – the collision and annihilation of the two worlds is the doomed end of this nightmare.”
The shaking of the entire ship became more and more intense, and Vanna, while trying to stand up and stabilize her body, stared wide-eyed at the scene of everything collapsing in the distance, and finally couldn’t help but open her mouth, “How are we going to stop this ……”
Duncan sniffed but just turned his head and gazed quietly into her eyes, “Stop it? Stop what? Stop the collision of two worlds? Or stop the Great Annihilation from happening?”
Vanna was stunned at his words, and seemed to gradually respond.
“The Great Annihilation has already happened – in real history, as the beginning of the Age of the Deep, it happened and ended a long time ago, and what remains here is just a ‘memory’ of a scene that happened a long time ago, and we can’t stop it, and there’s There is no need to stop it,” Duncan shook his head slowly, “All we have to do is stop Silentis.”
Vanna said no more, just a thoughtful expression. Duncan, for his part, slowly made his way to the edge of the deck and looked out into the distance, at the apocalyptic scene of the annihilation of the world.
The fusion of the two worlds has begun – at the end of the “impact”, the two inverted earths did not really overlap with each other physically, but fell apart before then, and in the remodeling and twisting of the disintegration gradually turned into some kind of darkness and chaos. Chaotic …… “thing”.
Above and below the Lost Country, around the deck, beyond the ship’s side, the former forests, mountains, deserts and rivers were torn apart, and quickly lost their discernible colors and contours, the light of the whole world is fading, and then, those large and small wrecks gradually become a chaotic silhouette in the darkness of the “clumps”, these clumps in the endless darkness of the darkness, and the darkness of the darkness of the darkness of the world. These clumps floated in the endless darkness, colliding and fusing with each other, turning into even more twisted and grotesque shadows.
After an unknown period of time, in the almost complete darkness of the world, a chaotic and obscure stream of light appeared – as if it were the remaining souls of the world after the world had burned out, as if it were the last bit of fire in the embers, the obscure stream of light appeared in the grotesque shadows of the clumps, and flowed in a disorderly way in Duncan’s field of vision.
Deep within those obscure and unorganized streams of light, amidst the rubble of the world’s crashing wreckage, only a barely discernible outline of a form eventually remained.
It was an enormous tree.
She floated silently in the depths of the darkness where everything was silent, in the time and years that had ceased to flow after the Day of Destruction.
She was dead, completely dead when the worlds collided, the clash of law and order annihilating everything, the gods dying first in the process, and naturally the World Tree that the gods had created could not be an exception – Silentis was just a phantom, a phantom that had long since disappeared.
But then again, she couldn’t really die.
Because in the depths of the memory of the “elf”, always remembered that there is such a world tree.
Even if it was a re-created elf, even if it was an elf that was restored by the “Holy Lord of the Profound” in the Third Night – after witnessing the truth of the Great Annihilation with his own eyes, Duncan had vaguely realized what “all things” were really like in the Deep Sea Era nowadays. Duncan has realized what the essence of “everything” is.
Nothing can escape the clash of laws in the World Crash, not the most powerful warriors of the Kingdom, not the World Tree created by the gods, not even the gods themselves.
Duncan didn’t know what kind of existence the “Four Gods”, including the “Eternal Flame Tarekin”, were, but he was sure of one thing: the entire Deep Sea Era was strictly speaking only a “blueprint” created by the Holy Lord of the Profound from the “blueprints” of the “blueprints” of the “blueprints” of the “blueprints” of the “blueprints” after the Third Night. “blueprint” after the Third Long Night.
They are all remnants.
Duncan gazed silently at the Silentis floating calmly in the darkness, at her remains, and at the chaotic shadows around her that had once been the home of a race.
The Tree of Worlds that had appeared in the memories of the elven race was technically a replica – but she couldn’t understand that.
Likewise, she could not recognize the “elves” that had been remade from “ash”.
There was a shimmering light coming from the remains of Silentis.
Like fireflies, the light slowly seeped outward from the wreckage of the giant tree, gradually converging into a river in the chaos, which meandered and gently circled around Silantis’ feet, just as a river had once flowed through the earth in the forests of the elves’ homeland a long, long time ago, nourishing the World Tree.
Each point of light in that river was a sleeping mind.
And under the nourishment of this river, the remains of Silentis once again began to grow – in the state of a still-dead “corpse”, the branches of the World Tree began to strangely raise, extend, and grow gray from the edges. The branches of the World Tree began to extend, and from the edges grew grayish-white, thin, twisted leaves, like a zombie rising from the grave to crawl from the land of the dead to the earthly world.
Ted Reel’s last stand failed.
Duncan reached forward.
The Lost Country sailed silently through the darkness toward the pale, twisted, burned wreckage that was still growing and spreading, the Tree of Death.
